Samsung to focus on Windows 7 Phone

Only several weeks ago Samsung announced that they drop support for the Symbian platform and now it seems that another serious change is on the horizon. Samsung's Sitthichoke Nopchinabutra announced that the company is going to focus on development of Windows Phone 7 based smartphones, rather than Android, as they consider Windows Phone a better platform. Therefore, Windows Phone will get the highest priority, at the expense of Android, and even Samsung's own Bada.

Sitthichoke said that Samsung cell phones releases for the upcoming years have already been scheduled and for every 50 Windows Phone based models there will be just 24 Android phones and only 5 Bada ones. This seems to be a very interesting and intriguing change considering Android's huge (and rapidly growing popularity) and also that Samsung's recent Android based smartphone, the Galaxy S, has been a huge market hit.
